AFAIK it is not possible to delete the perimeter frames of a curtain wall. The best you can do is make them very small.

You'll have to play around with it but you can cut the curtain wall with the trim-to-roof tool. I've only done it a couple of times but it's how I got rid of the outer frame members on curtain walls.

hemanayal:

I was able to get close by doing two things:
1. In the 3D Window, select the corner frame and change from Generic to Invisible, this will eliminate the frame in 2D and 3D.
2. Select the Panels and change from Generic to CW Corner Panel. Then change this to One Butted Edge and play with the settings until the panels overlap at the corner.

You should modify your Signature of your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

One More Query:

I am trying to create Custom Junction Object, but the problem is with placement. The Whole Juction is coming on One Panel while I need it to be as connector for Panel Grid (please see image)
